You can call me sentimental, but 1996-1999 were the golden age of new gaming IP. Most of games are sequels to franchises created in those few years. Like Fallout, GTA, Half-Life, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Baldurs Gate, Smash, Quake, and many more.
Gaming was killed by the same thing that kills everything: capitalism and exceptionalism, with no regard for social responsibility and morality.
Also, steam came out with cs 1.6, not 1.0.

I am but a failed reinforcement for a machine of which I cannot prescribe.
